Building a Strong Foundation for Children from Lower Income Families 

KidSTART is a nationwide programme that supports low-income families. By helping families provide a solid foundation for their children’s growth, we hope to lead to positive child development outcomes.  

By helping families provide a solid foundation for their children’s growth, we help them achieve positive child development outcomes.

Through home visits, our KidSTART Practitioners will engage parents on child development, nutrition, health, social wellbeing and more for their children aged 0 to 6. We will also provide the appropriate intervention and help.
